Valentina Sestieri, curator of Susy Nuda, puts her hand back in the family archive from which she draws to rebuild, with a great emotional transport, the love story that has united her parents for decades. She does it by using the photographs that her father Lorenzo took over a period of more than twenty years.

Francesco Amorosino, author of Il Libro del comando, draws us into a dark and unknown world, between legends and superstitions, populated by witches and in which a halo of magic hovers. He tells the story of the Masche, a sort of cross between classic witches and woodland creatures who are capable of transforming themselves into animals or plants.

Giulia Mangione with her The Happy Show describes Denmark, a country that is said to be the happiest in the world. To do so, she decides to live there, establishing a relationship of trust with people in an attempt to understand if this nation really deserves such a reputation.

Marina Caneve, with a research project that also takes on a strong scientific value, takes us to the Dolomites. Are they Rocks or Clouds? describes and documents the state of hydrogeological instability in a large mountain system, fascinating and suggestive but at the same time torn by thousands of landslides.
